I have to say I'm shocked that Mario Lanza's Vesti La Giubba is so magnificent! I never "knew" his operatic acting and his voice were so wonderful. I'm a true Pavarotti fan but I believe this version rivals his! It's so irritating though that they take the camera off him to show some side actors while he is delivering one of the best performances of one of the most soulful songs of all times!
The opera world rarely includes Lanza in the discussion of the great tenors. Let anyone listen to this version of Vesti la Giubba and deny that Lanza ranks with the greatest of all time. This aria is one of Caruso's trademarks: perhaps his most famous because of the power and emotion. But Mario nails every note and nuance: let me dip into sacrilege and say this ranks up there with Carusos. Astonishing: can't stop listening to it.
This is to me the greatest performance of this great operatic aria I have ever heard. Mario Lanza is magnificent here. The emotions he displays here, and the acting is so gut wrenching it brings tears to my eyes when I watch this. Brilliant!
MARIO LANZA DID MORE FOR OPERA THAN ANY OF THE SINGERS OF THE TIME THE SHEER BEAUTY OF HIS SINGING SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. IT IS A VOCAL LESSON TO ALL SINGERS.
I find it hard to comprehend how anyone can love opera and not love Mario Lanza. This is exquisite: one of the great Canio's of all time. Power, beauty, heart break. Mario's passion, voice and technique are breath taking. He is truly one of the greats.
Actuar! Mientras que en el delirio, ya no sé lo que digo o lo que hago! Y sin embargo, es necesario ... hacer un esfuerzo! Bah! ¿No eres un hombre? Tú eres un payaso! Ponte el traje, polvo de la cara. La gente paga para estar aquí, y quieren reírse. Y si Arlequín deberá robar su Columbina, reír, payaso, así que la gente va a animar! Dé vuelta a su angustia y lágrimas en broma, su dolor y sollozando en una cara divertida - ¡Ah! Ríe, payaso, a su amor roto! Ríete de la pena que envenena tu corazón! Act! While in delirium, I no longer know what I say, or what I do! And yet it's necessary... make an effort! Bah! Are you not a man? You are a clown! Put on your costume, powder your face. The people pay to be here, and they want to laugh. And if Harlequin shall steal your Columbina, laugh, clown, so the crowd will cheer! Turn your distress and tears into jest, your pain and sobbing into a funny face -- Ah! Laugh, clown, at your broken love! Laugh at the grief that poisons your heart! 😥
the best tenor of the twentieth century. the purists will have you believe otherwise. his willingness to use popular media to engage the general public, apparently diminishes his ability. ? he interprets his roles with a broken heart, the catch in his voice that no other could hope to achieve. compare metronomes to heartbeats.
DIO ha rapito tale perfezione al mondo per potersene beare per l eternità!Sono sicura che anche Dio ha pianto durante la sua esecuzione GRANDE MARIO RIP❤
My beautiful mother adored Mario Lanza thankyou for bringing a lovely memory of my Mum and myself watching Mario Lanza films together from time to time she passed away in 1992 and imiss her every day so thankyou xxxxx
I've heard many people knock Lanza for not having persued an operatic stage career.. But, just imagine if he'd had.. These movies most likely wouldn't of been made.. The millions of people turned on to the operatic classics by way of Lanza introducing the best tenor arias via cinema - wouldn't have happened.. Culture would have suffered.. Thank God, Lanza, had his sixth sense.. and steered himself cinema-operatically into the stuff of legend..
Well said, He was mocked by the opera fraternity at the time He opened the door for the average man in the street to hear the songs that were only heard in opera house's
it's amazing that a singer who passed away so long ago still captures the imagination of millions. It is a testimony to Mario Lanza's fantastic talent. It was a splendid but short lived career filled with passion and success and some difficult times. At the end, Lanza was back on his way up and was among the most popular entertainers of his era. I recommend reading A KID FROM PHILADELPHIA, MARIO LANZA, THE VOICE OF THE POETS, and to listen to him as you read the beautiful essays that are a homage to a star who is still with us and will always be with us.
i watched this because I started singing this being goofy then my sis asked about it looked it up and found this video. I then looked up the story and looked up the lyrics for it now knowing the story behind it makes this scene and song much more powerful.
I don't know why but every time I hear Mr.Mario Lanza sing it brings tears to my eye's and I can't help but feel very sad for him and his very short tragic Life. It never fails that those w/ the most talent to offer are always some how taken away before their time. R.I.P Enrico and Mario this world will never be the same w/ o both of you here with us.
I love this version, my favourite version is enrico Caruso because it was sung so perfectly, I like this version better than Pavarotti's, people say that her over acts in this performance but I think it's more that Pavarotti doesn't act or change his facial expression much, it's too clinical, because this song is so sad his wife ran off with another guy and someone just told him this when he is about to perform his act, and he is singing about how can he go on with the show but realizes it does and Mario lanza captures the emotion of someone who's wife had left him. Don't get me wrong pavarotti sings cleaner than Mario lanza but Mario has so much more emotion in his performance and his singing.
YES! That is exactly it! Caruso bears his soul, it resonates every fibre. Lanza's voice is richer in tone (could be the superior recording process). Pavarotti's performance IS clinical. FLAT... I believe he was the result of technique and did not live the part for fear it would harm his instrument. Until I heard the tears, felt the pain and lived the anguish of Caruso's performance I did not appreciate Opera. On stage there is a difference between being the character and playing the character. Caruso was real, Pavarotti, a mask. Lanza is somewhere in between, but more on the "being" than the "playing" side. Lanza comes close to Caruso at the end of the song and it's good. Caruso grabs you with the first note. As you said...perfection. Cheers!
pndragon1 I think Pavarotti version is a tiny bit better that Mario because if you look closer pav is portraying a delusional man filled with anger and sadness his face might have been plain in emotions but his eyes drifted off to where his 2 world's meet the performing and his personal life (in the play) with no make up on, which gives a slightly better emotion on Mario's.... But hey love both performances.
Dilecto colega , Permitame expresarme en estos términos, no soy un conyector ni pretendo confitar florilegios, bajo ningún concepto he tradado de faltarle al respeto al gran maestro Kraus, poseedor de una de las mas equilibradas e impecables técnicas del Bel canto, tanto como Bjorling, wunderlich, Gigli etc. Pero me refería a su espíritu gallardo ,vertical e impasible al interpretar con una naturalidad pasmosa , ya que siempre se critica a Lanza de ser en extremo sanguíneo y emocional.
Admiro a Corelli como uno de los tenores mas versátiles , pero de ninguna manera , su versión es mejor que la de Lanza, la expresividad, la gallardía el colorido , timbre de una inaudita belleza, su gran rango vocal, Lanza podía cantar con el portento de Caruso y la sublimeza y la gracia de Gigli y el inefable caracter de Kraus o la claridad prístina de Wunderlich, aspectos que definitivamente a mi humilde entender no hubiese podido abordar el maestro Corelli.
He was truly great. Up with the very best. But he didn't receive the recognition he deserved. Mainly because the "establishment" wanted him to be resident in Italy. Had he lived in Italy he would, no doubt, be challenging Caruso for the greatest of all time.

One of the most popular tenors of his time, but there have been many others who have improved on his rendition of the tenor aria's, just remember that the recording techniques have improved vastly, but he was good and I always enjoy listening to the maestro! Bravo,Viva, Bravo!!
The American Caruso or THE ONE TENOR he is and was called a magnificent voice with lots of power and stamina but most important singing with his feelings in every word and phrase sung. No wonder one gets tears in ones eyes hearing Mr. Mario Lanza sing!
For This one Lanza is the greatest one. Even Domingo which also i think is not even better than Luciano Pavaroti because Pavaroti was greater than Domingo by far . But for me the best performers are in order 1. Caruzo 2. Lanza 3. Pavaroti and the rest.... But I do not ignore the Talent of Domingo of course not, he's very good
Ария Канио из оперы,,Паяцы,, Композитор Руджеро Леонкавалло! Гениальный драматический тенор Марио Ланца! БРАВИССИМО!!! Светлая память! С уважением, Валерий Романов.
His singing COULD NEVER be forgotten. How is it possible? Apart from his obvious qualities he stirs the passion in our own souls and by that alone, as long as we humans live and love Mario will never die.
Thank you for your wonderful words about our beloved Mario Lanza, there has never been a tenor like him neither before or since nor ever will be, he was just simply unique. I spend many hours on you tube listening to "other tenors" and although most of them are fantastic both past and present but how many could sing opera and the "Student Prince" with equal ease. I think Joseph Calleja is probably heading in that direction. Mario still has fan clubs all over the world and is still revered much.
Perform! While in delirium, I no longer know what I'm saying, Or what I'm doing! But still I must. Strain yourself! Bah! Are you a man? Bha ha ha ha ha ha You are a clown! Put on the costume, And the powdered face. The people pay, and they want to laugh here. And if the harlequin steals your Columbina, Laugh, Clown, and everybody will applaud! Transform the spasms and the tears into pranks; The sobbing and the pain into a smirk, Ah! Laugh, Clown, At your broken love! Laugh at your sorrow, ha ha that poisons your heart!
I TO WAS RAISED NOT FAR FROM MERCY STREET. I LOVED MARIO AND HIS VOICE FROM WHEN I WAS EIGHT YEARS OLD. BEING ITALIAN I LOVE TO SING TO. GOD BLESS MY FRIENDS DAMON MARC AND COLLEN LANZA. I KNEW THEM IN CALIFORNIA. GOD REST THE LANZA FAMILY. MAY MARIO, BETTY, AND THE CHILDREN REST IN PEACE AND BE HAPPY TOGETHER IN HEAVEN. PLEASE VIEW MY YOU TUBE FRANK CRESTA MY KIND OF TOWN. I PUT MARIO'S MURAL IN IT. THANK YOU
Pues la ultima vez Pav. lo dijo en una entrevista para l BBC, en el ano 2000 y Placido y Carreras en múltiples ocasiones , pero se cuidan de decir , respecto de la tecnica de Lanza , al igual que este humilde servidor admiran su portentosa voz
I started listening to Mario when I was about 14,. as I was drifting into a gang on the streets on the south side of Chicago. My parents bought a cabinet victrola and radio and a few records at the local Sears store. I was blown away listening to The Great Caruso and Student Prince, and since my sister worked at the local theater, I got to see the movies more than once. Then at home, I would lay with my head in the cabinet doors with the volume pegged (which is one of the reasons probably I wear hearing aids.) I offer that sacrifice willingly. This was before guns and drugs and business gangs. A lot of drinking and a little posturing between The 120th Street Boys (mostly from the South, with some Irish and Polish, some of who had wrestled pigs and chopped wood) and the Bumtown Gents (largely Italians, who were also supposed to be tough, I don't know why.) All just lost kids in a culture that was only becoming bizarre. I would imagine myself standing on the counter in Joniacs corner store, singing Pagliacci to my JD friends--or maybe "Cielo y Mar" and Mario's voice was pouring into me. I listened to him through the years when I could; so you can imagine, the invention of the the iPod was a miraculous revolution, akin to Johnny Tillotson singing "Poetry in Motion" as I walked across the West Pullman Park listening to my little black transistor radio. I'd lose Mario for a few years in the heat of life, but always he would return; and it is only now at 71 that I understand how his skilled and brilliant power poured into my heart when I was a weak and vulnerable child, in a confusing world--and how this living and vibrant power filled me and sustained me through those spare times and then through a rich and vibrant life. Mario, I am sad that you did not grow old. Yet you still live, if anyone does, Viva Mario Lanza!! Que Canta Mario!!!
I am sitting in my living room sipping my coffee listening to Mario. Then I notice your post. Just a few lines that took me to a place and time of your life and a bitter sweet story worthy of a book... Restless kid myself, but like you, never a bad seed. Thank you for sharing this. I wish I could spend an afternoon with you, listening to your stories over drinks... Good bless you!
What a voice he got!!!...since years passed by, it is very difficult to bare thta he is no longer with us, but worst of all that there are no more voices like this nowadays!!! Bravo Lanza!!!!
Couldnt agree more, a unique talent whom I hope will never be forgotten. A special thanks to You Tube for sharing all his wonderful recordings.Most tenors before and since were maybe more technically gifted but Mario sang from his heart, just how a tenor should sing. I think the greatest living tenor must be Domingo and of the newer crop Joseph Calleja stands out for me.
Rayos, me es imposible decidir si la interpretación de Plácido Domingo es tan buena como esta. Mario Lanza, increíble interpretación, te escarapela todo.
Simply the greatest this MAN can not be equal even Pavaroti The most natural interpretation of what theatrical power Nodody does it better THANKS MARIO
i was shocked that what seemed to have been a light romantic comedy.turned into Lanza singing a beautifully haunting heavy aura which opera legends like would also cover.
This aria has never been sung better? Power, colour, diction, passion, tragedy? Lanza snapped up by Hollywood and died so young a total tragedy too.
As much as I like Luciano Pavarotti. I think Mario Lanza nails this...
It's the emotion. He lived it, rejection an all that. What a voice, fantastic.
I have to say I'm shocked that Mario Lanza's Vesti La Giubba is so magnificent! I never "knew" his operatic acting and his voice were so wonderful. I'm a true Pavarotti fan but I believe this version rivals his! It's so irritating though that they take the camera off him to show some side actors while he is delivering one of the best performances of one of the most soulful songs of all times!
watch "The Great Caruso" this movie at a young age made me love opera
Nobody can equal Mario ❤️
The greatest voice of all times ❤️
This voice can only be heard in heaven, so God took him back so fast.
nope, definitely male, human and Christian!
The opera world rarely includes Lanza in the discussion of the great tenors. Let anyone listen to this version of Vesti la Giubba and deny that Lanza ranks with the greatest of all time. This aria is one of Caruso's trademarks: perhaps his most famous because of the power and emotion. But Mario nails every note and nuance: let me dip into sacrilege and say this ranks up there with Carusos. Astonishing: can't stop listening to it.
Mario Lanza - № 1 Браво, браво, брависимо!!! Лучшее исполнение за всю историю
This is to me the greatest performance of this great operatic aria I have ever heard. Mario Lanza is magnificent here. The emotions he displays here, and the acting is so gut wrenching it brings tears to my eyes when I watch this. Brilliant!
MARIO LANZA DID MORE FOR OPERA THAN ANY OF THE SINGERS OF THE TIME
THE SHEER BEAUTY OF HIS SINGING SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. IT
IS A VOCAL LESSON TO ALL SINGERS.
Probably the best rendition of Pagliacci ever sung, and there have been some fabulous versions by great, great, Tenors over the years.
I have heard them all too and I have to agree with you. Mario is the best
Quite possibly the greatest version ever of this beloved aria. Yes better and more emotional than Pavarotti and I’m a huge fan of Pavarotti
Best version of this, ever. Pavaroti, demanaco, or any of the rest dont even come close to this
People always told me that Maio Lanza was famous because his voice was "good for television. But this proves the doubters wrong!
I find it hard to comprehend how anyone can love opera and not love Mario Lanza. This is exquisite: one of the great Canio's of all time. Power, beauty, heart break. Mario's passion, voice and technique are breath taking. He is truly one of the greats.
Man what an ending for chris chan.

Best interpretation of Vesti La Giubba ever, in this world
THE RING IN HIS VOICE IS UN PARALLED TO THIS DAY AT OUR MAJOR OPERA HOUSES !
I don't understand how anyone can watch this and not have their heart tremble
It's an ugly concept to wrestle with. A sad clown, is really a heart breaking irony.

immer noch Weltbester Tenor, nicht zu übertreffen !!!!!!

Aunque amo a Pavaroti... Mario Lanza es la mejor representacion de esta bella pieza que inunda de lagrimas el alma!
ni el mismo Mario Lanza pudo volver a representar a este nivel de nuevo esta aria

I watched this film so sad what a beautiful voice very toung when he died 😢😢❤
My love of opera and of the tenor voice comes from listening to him singing and watching the film The Great Caruso. Thank you Mario.
Il pagliacci é o culminar de uma obra sem fim. Talento sem limites... Te aplaudo de pé. Que descanses em paz, irmão.
Master Mario Lanza
I allways have to cry when I hear this majestic voice woow Iove it so much
master Mario! !

Rocco Pagliacci your right things rarely translate well between mediums
Well said,
He was mocked by the opera fraternity at the time
He opened the door for the average man in the street to hear the songs that were only heard in opera house's
Rocco Pagliacci you are right Rocco baby. I love Lanza. See my 2 singing videos.

Rocco Pagliacci he probably was paid better than opera singers

To me he is the greatest opera singer e the world He sings to my heart's soul.
Dilecto colega , Permitame expresarme en estos términos, no soy un conyector ni pretendo confitar florilegios, bajo ningún concepto he tradado de faltarle al respeto al gran maestro Kraus, poseedor de una de las mas equilibradas e impecables técnicas del Bel canto, tanto como Bjorling, wunderlich, Gigli etc.
Pero me refería a su espíritu gallardo ,vertical e impasible al interpretar con una naturalidad pasmosa , ya que siempre se critica a Lanza de ser en extremo sanguíneo y emocional.
Admiro a Corelli como uno de los tenores mas versátiles , pero de ninguna manera , su versión es mejor que la de Lanza, la expresividad, la gallardía el colorido , timbre de una inaudita belleza, su gran rango vocal, Lanza podía cantar con el portento de Caruso y la sublimeza y la gracia de Gigli y el inefable caracter de Kraus o la claridad prístina de Wunderlich, aspectos que definitivamente a mi humilde entender no hubiese podido abordar el maestro Corelli.
Incomparable

He was truly great. Up with the very best. But he didn't receive the recognition he deserved. Mainly because the "establishment" wanted him to be resident in Italy. Had he lived in Italy he would, no doubt, be challenging Caruso for the greatest of all time.
Sang with such emotion. Fabulous performance

This just breaks my heart. Mario Lanza is the best ever1!
As World renowned Bass/Baritone Noel Tyl stated; My God, could that man sing, talking about Lanza! Also stating Unduplicatable Vocal Brillance!!
You all say it so well ,,just what I feel and what I would absolutely would say !!

The American Caruso or THE ONE TENOR he is and was called a magnificent voice with lots of power and stamina but most important singing with his feelings in every word and phrase sung. No wonder one gets tears in ones eyes hearing Mr. Mario Lanza sing!

But for me the best performers are in order 1. Caruzo 2. Lanza 3. Pavaroti and the rest....

You may say anything, but put earphones and listen great Lanza!
My south Philadelphia man
We were are lucky to hear still.
This is without a doubt, a classic. However, would anyone know where to find the English lyrics? I would love to see what he's actually singing about.
Perform! While in delirium,
I no longer know what I'm saying,
Or what I'm doing!
But still I must. Strain yourself!
Bah! Are you a man? Bha ha ha ha ha ha
You are a clown!
Put on the costume,
And the powdered face.
The people pay, and they want to laugh here.
And if the harlequin steals your Columbina,
Laugh, Clown, and everybody will applaud!
Transform the spasms and the tears into pranks;
The sobbing and the pain into a smirk, Ah!
Laugh, Clown,
At your broken love!
Laugh at your sorrow, ha ha that poisons your heart!

This makes my soul ache. Truly one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard.
Cantar assim, com tanta emoção, pouco tempo antes de morrer, somente MARIO, abençoado por Deus com alma e coração belíssimos e uma voz magnífica.
RIS DONC PAILLASS ! UN CLASSIQUE § MAGNIFIQUE INTERPRETE TENOR MARIO LANZA, EXCELLENT J'adore § irina olivier de bourlas
J'adore sa voix solaire !
1:56. Maybe it's his makeup, but I can feel his emotions greatly... Full of despair and sadness...
It's called being human.
Un placer a mis sentidos , emoción , un nudo en la garganta .Simplemente espectacular !!!
What a tenor !
What a voice he got!!!...since years passed by, it is very difficult to bare thta he is no longer with us, but worst of all that there are no more voices like this nowadays!!! Bravo Lanza!!!!
Today i wiped my last tear for her.
This clown's only sin was loving love too much...
During films they did sing in play back. This is Marios original voice and he is interpretating Caruso!
Passei minha juventude ouvindo essa voz maravilhosa de Lanza. Era só o que precisava.
Lanza's interpretation of this aria is transcendent. Mario Del Monaco and Bjorling have gorgeous versions also.
Love, broken heart, tears. Ah such emotion!
O tal vez esas 7 personas piensan que Pavarotti lo hace mejor.
grande MARIO......
Couldnt agree more, a unique talent whom I hope will never be forgotten. A special thanks to You Tube for sharing all his wonderful recordings.Most tenors before and since were maybe more technically gifted but Mario sang from his heart, just how a tenor should sing. I think the greatest living tenor must be Domingo and of the newer crop Joseph Calleja stands out for me.
Pav copied him
He sings it so natural, without any heaviness, easy and light like bird singing...for him its so easy that I'm thinking that i do same very easy too
Огромное спасибо за эту запись! Давно мечтала услышать вновь это исполнение Паяца. Это самое лучшее исполнение этой арии!
Anema e cuore : MARIO LANZA. Magnifico!
Rayos, me es imposible decidir si la interpretación de Plácido Domingo es tan buena como esta.
Mario Lanza, increíble interpretación, te escarapela todo.
los vargas
Simply the greatest this MAN can not be equal even Pavaroti
The most natural interpretation of what theatrical power
Nodody does it better
THANKS MARIO
incredibile che normalmente non ascoltare l'opera, ma quando mi viene a Mario Lanza sono tutt'orecchi
eine unvergessliche stimme................
i was shocked that what seemed to have been a light romantic comedy.turned into Lanza singing a beautifully haunting heavy aura which opera legends like would also cover.
Grandiose!
